My dad went through a phase of making this all the time when I was in highschool. One of my favorites from home.
My parents and Jordan came over for dinner last week. Here's my version of Dad's pasta-
Lemon Chicken Pasta with Squash
2 large boneless chicken breast, cubed
lemon pepper
dill weed or try oregano
1 yellow squash chopped
1 zucchini chopped
1/2 small onion, diced
1 tsp. minced garlic
3 T. olive oil
1 box whole wheat angel hair pasta
1 large lemon
1.Start by seasoning the chicken with lemon pepper and dill weed. Heat 1 T. olive oil over med.high heat. Add chicken and garlic. Cook until white then add onion. Brown the chicken then remove from the pan.
2.Boil water and get pasta ready in another pot.
3.Pour more olive oil in the pan if it needs it. Add the squash and zucchini. Cover with a lid to cook faster. When the veggies get tender add back the chicken and heat through.
4.Once the pasta is done add the chicken & veggies to the pasta. Squeeze lemon juice all over the mixture and add a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with some Parmesan cheese on top!
As you can see, this makes a lot. This served 5 adults and one child.
